Hello Citizens,
Today I'd like to bring up the topic of "WoC Xp is not currently balanced".
Why do I mean that ? Currently we can see that some classes have clear issues getting to it:
- The Spy and PE have major issues getting it done with their pistol/rifle gameplay.
- The PE cap his DEX at 25M xp and then need to reach 260M xp for WoC1. This is about 1.057hours of firemob hunting !!
- Droning is the only productive way to reach WoC as PE and Spy. Which can only confirm there is a flaw in the design.
- Currently you can cap all class by playing their combat roles. Yes you can cap a Spy/PE with weapons. The WoC insane xp requirement is what makes single target damage unproductive.
Proposing to:
- Lower WOC 1 Cap Value to 200M for Spy/GenT/PSI
- Lower WOC 1 Cap Value to 100M for PE
- Remove WOC 2, 3, 4, 5. Because they are useless execpt for WOC PA Gold which is not in the game.
- Remove attributes related WOC and simply call it "WOC" instead of "WOC STR", it adds confusion for new players because other WoC Attributes are of no use.
On a side note:
- A lot of friends which I brought to NC stopped playing because of the insane farming required.
First they attempted to get xp with their SPY and PE, after days they realized they would never get WoC, so they moved to droning, even tho they don't like it and it burns eyes. Mid-way through the process after farming for dozens of hours they gave up and changed game.
- We have to realize that not only the vets can make the game survive, we have to make NC appealing for the new players to.
- I capped myself over 6 spy and 2 PE with droning over the last years and due to this I lost -1 and -2 for left/right eye view performance.
Thanks for reading and please be aware that those changes will not altere the essence of NC. It will just make WoC Less of a PAIN and more of fun.
ps: can you change title to "WoC Xp, let's balance it" instead ? Will appear less salty, thanks
